WATCH: James Yap breaches 10,000 points in PBA career
Yap becomes the 14th player to join the elite club and the first in 16 years

MANILA, Philippines – James Yap joined the elite 10,000-point club on Saturday, July 29, when his Rain or Shine Elasto Painters lost, 89-73, to the Meralco Bolts in the 2017 PBA Governors’ Cup.

Yap, 35, achieved the feat with a corner triple late in the third quarter.

He became the 14th player to do so and the first in 16 years, according to PBA statistician Fidel Mangonon III.

The list includes 12 of the PBA’s 25 Greatest Players such as Ramon Fernandez, the all-time leader, Alvin Patrimonio, Atoy Co, and Robert Jaworski.

Barangay Ginebra’s Mark Caguioa is the next active player to have a shot at breaching the 10,000-point mark as he is 247 points away, per Mangonon. – Rappler.com
